PHENETHYLAMINE COMPOUNDS

Abstract: Substituted phenethylamines of formula (I) useful for treating phosphodiesterase IV related disease states are disclosed herein.

Description: PHENETHYLAMINE COMPOUNDS Field of the Invention This invention relates to certain phenethylamines which are useful for treating diseases where antagonizing the enzyme phosphodiesterase IN will have a salutory effect Background of the Invention Bronchial asthma is a complex, multifactorial disease characterized by reversible narrowing of the airway and hyper-reactivity of the respiratory tract to external stimuli. It is now understood that the symptoms of chronic asthma are the manifestations of three distinct processes: 1) an early response to antigen, 2) a delayed or late response to antigen, and 3) chronic inflammation and airway hyper-reactivity. Cockcroft, Ann. Allergy 55:857-862, 1985; Larsen, Hosp. Practice 22:113-127, 1987. The agents currently available (β-adrenoceptor agonists, steroids, methylxanthines, disodium cromoglycate) are inadequate to control the disease; none of them modify all three phases of asthma and nearly all are saddled with limiting side effects. Most importantly, none of the agents, with the possible exception of steroids, alter the course of progression of chronic asthma. Identification of novel therapeutic agents for asthma is made difficult by the fact that multiple mediators are responsible for the development of disease. Thus, it seems unlikely that eliminating the effects of a single mediator will have a substantial effect on all three components of chronic asthma. An alternative to the "mediator approach" is to regulate the activity of the cells responsible for the pathophysiology of the disease. Cyclic AMP modulates the activity of most, if not all, of the cells that contribute to the pathophysiology of extrinsic (allergic) asthma. As such, an elevation of cAMP would produce beneficial effects including: 1) airway smooth muscle relaxation, 2) inhibition of mast cell mediator release, 3) suppression of neutrophil degranulation, 4) inhibition of basophil degranulation, and 5) inhibition of monocyte and macrophage activation. Hence, compounds that activate adenylate cyclase or inhibit PDE should be effective in suppressing the inappropriate activation of airway smooth muscle and a wide variety of inflammatory cells. The principal cellular mechanism for the inactivation of c AMP is hydrolysis of the 3'-phosphodiester bond by one or more of a family of isozymes referred to as cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs). It has now been shown that a distinct cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) isozyme, PDE IN, is responsible for cyclic AMP breakdown in airway smooth muscle and inflammatory cells. Toiphy, "Phosphodiesterase Isozymes: Potential Targets for Novel Anti-asthmatic Agents" in New Drugs for Asthma, Barnes, ed. IBC Technical Services Ltd. (1989). Research indicates that inhibition of this enzyme not only produces airway smooth muscle relaxation, but also suppresses degranulation of mast cells, basophils and neutrophils along with inhibiting the activation of monocytes and neutrophils. Moreover, the beneficial effects of PDE IV inhibitors are markedly potentiated when adenylate cyclase activity of target cells is elevated by appropriate hormones or autocoids, as would be the case in vivo. Thus PDE IV inhibitors would be effective in the asthmatic lung, where levels of prostaglandin E2 and prostacyclin (activators of adenylate cyclase) are elevated. Such compounds would offer a unique approach toward the pharmacotherapy of bronchial asthma and possess significant therapeutic advantages over agents currently on the market. The compounds of this invention also inhibit production of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), a serum glycoprotein. Excessive or unregulated TNF production is implicated in mediating or exacerbating a number of diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid spondylitis, osteoarthritis, gouty arthritis and other arthritic conditions; sepsis, septic shock, endotoxic shock, gram negative sepsis, toxic shock syndrome, adult respiratory distress syndrome, cerebral malaria, chronic pulmonary inflammatory disease, silicosis, pulmonary sacroidosis, bone resoiption diseases, reperfusion injury, graft vs. host reaction, allograft rejections, fever and myalgias due to infection, such as influenza, cachexia secondary to infection or malignancy, cachexia secondary to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), AIDS, ARC (AIDS related complex), keloid formation, scar tissue formation, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or pyresis. TNF has been implicated in various roles with the human acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). AIDS results from the infection of T lymphocytes with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). It has now been discovered that monokines, specifically TNF, are implicated in the infection of T lymphocytes with HTV by playing a role in maintaining T lymphocyte activation. Furthermore, once an activated T lymphocyte is infected with HTV, the T lymphocyte must continue to be maintained in an activated state to permit HIN gene expression and/or HTV replication. It has also been discovered that monokines, specifically TΝF, are implicated in activated T cell-mediated HIN protein expression and/or virus replication by playing a role in maintaining T lymphocyte activation. Therefore, interference with monokine activity such as by inhibition of monokine production, notably TΝF, in an HTV-infected individual aids in Umiting the maintenance of T cell activation, thereby reducing the progression of HIN infectivity to previously uninfected cells which results in a slowing or elimination of the progression of immune dysfunction caused by HIN infection. Monocytes, macrophages, and related cells, such as kupffer and glial cells, have also been implicated in maintenance of the HIN infection. These cells, like T cells, are targets for viral replication and the level of viral replication is dependent upon the activation state of the cells. [See Rosenberg et al., The Immunopatho-genesis of HTV Infection, Advances in Immunology, Vol. 57, (1989)]. Monokines, such as TNF, have been shown to activate HTV replication in monocytes and/or macrophages [See Poli, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 87:782-784 (1990)], therefore, inhibition of monokine production or activity aids in limiting HTV progression as stated above for T cells. It has now been discovered that monokines are implicated in certain disease- associated problems such as cachexia and muscle degeneration. Therefore, interference with monokine activity, such as by inhibition of TNF production, in an HlV-infected individual aids in enhancing the quality of life of HTV-infected patients by reducing the severity of monokine-mediated disease associated problems such as cachexia and muscle degeneration. TNF is also associated with yeast and fungal infections. Specifically Candida Albicans has been shown to induce TNF production in vitro in human monocytes and natural killer cells. [See Riipi et al., Infection and Immunity, Vol. 58, No.9, p.2750-54 (1990); and Jafari et al., Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 164, p. 389-95 (1991). See also Wasan et al., Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, Vol. 35, No. 10, p. 2046-48 (1991) and Luke et al., Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 162, p.211-214 (1990)]. The discovery of a class of compounds which inhibit the production of TNF will provide a therapeutic approach for the diseases in which excessive, or unregulated TNF production is implicated.

Specific Embodiments Specific embodiments of this invention are defined and illustrated below. The following terms and phrases used herein are to be interpreted as having the meaning or meanings given hereafter. "Lower alkyl" means a group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. This included normal, secondary and tertiary form where such forms can exist e.g., isopropyl, t-butyl and the like. Normal, or linear, radicals are preferred, especially methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl and hexyl. Halo means fluoro, chloro, bromo and iodo. The term "cycloalkyl" or "cycloalkyl alkyl" as used herein is meant to include those rings of 3-7 carbon atoms, such as cyclopropyl, cyclopropylmethyl, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl. "Aryl", unless specified otherwise, means an aromatic ring or ring system of 6-10 carbon atoms such as phenyl. Preferably the aryl is monocyclic, i.e., phenyl. The alkyl chain is meant to include both straight or branched chain radicals of 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Some compounds of formula I may be sufficiently basic so as form acid addition salts. This work includes all such salts, particularly those which retain the activity of the parent base and are acceptable for pharmaceutical use. Making acid addition salts is a well know art and any documented procedure is expected to provide the desired product in the context of this invention. "Inhibiting the production of TNF" means, a) a decrease of excessive ia vivo TNF levels in a human to normal levels or below normal levels by inhibition of the in vivo release of TNF by all cells, including but not limited to monocytes or macrophages; b) a down regulation, at the translational or transcription level, of excessive in vivo TNF levels in a human to normal levels or below normal levels; or c) a down regulation, by inhibition of the direct synthesis of TNF as a postranslational event 'TNF mediated disease states" means all disease states in which TNF plays a role, either by production of TNF itself, or by TNF causing another cytokine to be released, such as but not limited to IL-1, or IL-6. A disease state in which IL-1, for instance is a major component and whose production or action is exacerbated or which is secreted in response to TNF, would therefore be considered a disease state mediated by TNF. "Cytokine" means any secreted polypeptide that affects the functions of other cells, and is a molecule which modulates interactions between cells in the immune or inflammatory response. A cytokine includes, but is not limited to monokines and lymphokines regardless of which cells produce them. For instance, a monokine is generally referred to as being produced and secreted by a mononuclear cell, such as a macrophage and/or monocyte but many other cells produce monokines, such as natural killer cells, fibroblasts, basophils, neutrophils, endothelial cells, brain astrocytes, bone marrow stromal cells, epideral keratinocytes, and β-lymphocytes. Lymphokines are generally referred to as being produced by lymphocyte cells. Examples of cytokines for the present invention include, but are not limited to Interleukin-1 (IL-1), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) and Tumor Necrosis Factor beta (TNFβ). Some compounds of formula I may exist in two distinct enantiomeric forms. Some compounds of Formula I may exist in at least two distinct diasteriomeric forms possessing distinct physical and biological properties. Furthermore some compounds of Formula I may exist in a tautomeric form, such as the enol or enamine. All these forms are within the scope of this invention.

Phosphodiesterase TV inhibitors are useful in the treatment of a variety of allergic and inflammatory diseases including: asthma, chronic bronchitis, atopic dermatitis, urticaria, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, vernal conjunctivitis, eosinophilic granuloma, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, septic shock, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease states including Crohn's disease, reperfusion injury of the myocardium and brain, chronic glomerulonephritis, endotoxic shock and adult respiratory distress syndrome. In addition, PDE TV inhibitors are useful in treating diabetes insipidus, (Kidnev Int. 37:362, 1990; Kidnev Int. 35:494, 1989) and central nervous system disorders such as depression and multi-infarct dementia. Compounds of Formula I are useful in treating, prophylactically or therapeutically, disease states in humans which are exacerbated or caused by excessive or unregulated TNF production. Therefore, the present invention also provides a method for inhibiting the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in an animal in need thereof, including humans, which method comprises administering to said animal an effective amount of a compound of formula I alone or mixed with a carrier. Compounds of the Formula I may be administered systemically, topically, parenterally or by inhalation in conventional dosage forms prepared by combining such agent with standard carriers according to conventional procedures in an amount sufficient to produce the desired therapeutic activity for treatment of a TNF-mediated disease state or for use as a PDE TV inhibitor. The daily dosage regimen, based on oral administration, is suitably about .001 mg/kg to lOOmg/kg, preferably 0.01 mg Kg to 40 mg/Kg, of a compound of the Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof calculated as the free base. The active ingredient may be administered from 1 to 6 times a day, sufficient to exhibit activity. Other doseage regimens may require more or less compound depending on the route by which they are administered, by the enchancing or retarding affects of excipients, to name two factors which can influence the dosage regimen. But optimizing a dosage regimen is within the scope of a person skilled in the art and can be deteraiined by following well established techniques for deteπnining what may constitute an effective amount to compound in a given situation. The amount of a compound of the formula I required for therapeutic effect on topical administration will, of course, vary with the compound chosen, the nature and severity of the condition and the animal undergoing treatment, and is ultimately at the discretion of the one directing the use of these compounds. While it is possible for an active ingredient to be administered alone as the raw chemical, it is preferable to present it via a vehicle of some sort Appropriate forms for using these compounds may be prepared by conventional techniques. For pharmaceutical or veterinary use, a composition of the present invention will comprising an effective, non-toxic amount of a compound of the formula I and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent The carriers) must be 'acceptable' in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious in the intended use. Preferably the composition is in unit dosage form, for example a tablet capsule or metered aerosol dose, so that the patient may self-administer a single dose. By systemic administration is meant oral, intravenous, intraperitoneal, topical, inhalation and intramuscular administration. By topical administration is meant non- systemic administration and includes the application of a compound externally to the epidermis, to the buccal cavity and instillation of such a compound into the ear, eye and nose, and where the compound does not significantly enter the blood stream. The term parenteral' as used herein includes intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous intranasal, intrarectal, intravaginal or intraperitoneal administration. The subcutaneous and intramuscular forms of parenteral administration are generally preferred. For oral administration each dosage unit may contains from 1 mg to 100 mg, and preferably from 10 mg to 30 mg of a compound of the formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof calculated as the free base. Appropriate dosage forms for inhalation include an aerosol formulation or a metered dose inhaler. The daily dosage regimen for a compound of the Formula (I) for intranasal administration and oral inhalation is suitably about 10 to about 1200 mg. As for topical use , a suitable dose of a TNF production inhibiting compound of the formula I is from about 0.01 mg to about 100 mg of base for topical administration, the most preferred dosage being about 0.01 mg to about 30 mg, for example, 0.003 mg to 10 mg administered two or three times daily. Formulations suitable for topical administration include liquid or semi-liquid preparations suitable for penetration through the skin to the site of inflammation such as liniments, lotions, creams, ointments or pastes, and drops suitable for administration to the eye, ear or nose. No unacceptable toxicological effects are expected when these compounds are administered in accordance with the present invention. Synthetic Methods Compounds of Formula I can be prepared by one of skill in the art according to the procedures outlined in the Examples, infra. The preparation of any remaining compounds of the Formula I not described therein may be prepared by the analogous processes disclosed herein. In general an amine is first prepared, that is a compound where R is NH2, and then this intermediate is converted to the desired target compound by one or more steps, all of which are described below. These amines can be prepared by the methods set out in PCT/US91/04795; those processes and the amines disclosed there are incorporated herein by reference to the extent that information is necessary or useful for understanding how to make the amine precursors used in this work. By way of illustration, a benzaldehyde of formula (a) is reacted with nitromethane in a suitable solvent such as acetic acid with a catalyst at between about 80 - 100°C or using the conditions of Shales, et al., J. Amer. Chem. Soc, 74, 4486 (1952) to provide the alkenylnitrate of formula (b). Treating formula b with a reducing agent such as lithium aluminum anhydride or hydrogen with a heavy metal catalyst and an acid yields the corresponding amine. Alternatively, the aldehyde of formula a can be treated with a lithium halide and a silyl halide in an appropriate solvent followed by a reducing agent e.g., siloxane, providing a halide of formula (c) where X4 is the halogen derived from the lithium halide. Cyanide is then used to displace the halide. This nitrile is then reduced, for example by hydrogen and suitable heavy metal catalyst such as nickel with ammonia or palladium on carbon with an acid such as perchloric acid to obtain the primary amine. Where R6 is nitrile, such compounds can be prepared by dehydrating a compound of formula (d) using a reagent such as trifluoroacetic anhydride. This converts the amide to the nitrile and subsequently the Boc group is hydrolized, providing the primary amine. Alternative protecting groups can be used. See for example those disclosed in Greene, L, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Wiley Publishers, NY (USA) (1981). Methods for making this compound are described in PCT/US91/04795, the publication noted above. Converting the primary amines to compounds of formula I is illustrated in the Examples set out below. These chemistries, and analogous processes, will make all of the compounds of formula I.
